About this journal

Aims and scope

International Journal of Green Energy shares multidisciplinary research results in the fields of energy research, energy conversion, energy management, and energy conservation, with a particular interest in advanced, environmentally friendly energy technologies. We publish research that focuses on the forms and utilizations of energy that have no, minimal, or reduced impact on environment, economy and society.

We welcome research papers that explore:

  • Sustainable Energy diversity
  • Green Energy localization
  • Green Energy security
  • Sustainable energy development
  • Sustainable Energy technology
  • Green Energy resources
  • Green Energy consumption
  • Consequences of energy use
  • Fundamental and practical applications for sustainable energy

Each manuscript will go through a rigours single-anonymized peer-review process by a minimum of two reviewers. you can visit our Instructions for Authors page for information on preparing your manuscript.

Author benefits

We are abstracted and indexed in the Science citation index, Scopus and more.
